In this episode, I speak with Dr. Philip Stucky,  CEO of FC Renew, which is focused on research, development, and commercialization of extended-life hydrogen fuel cells and recovery of precious metals and critical materials for hydrogen fuel cells and electrolyzers.

Philip shares his journey from a curious student to a leader in hydrogen fuel cell innovation. His passion for renewable energy was sparked during a study abroad trip to Iceland, leading him to pursue advanced degrees and a role at the U.S. Patent Office, where he honed his analytical skills.

In the leadership segment, Philip discusses the challenges of transitioning from researcher to CEO, emphasizing the importance of decision-making amid uncertainty and the need to balance technical and business aspects.
